Electric vehicle battery lifespan: studies and real-world experience

Several global studies covering tens of thousands of electric vehicles highlight battery longevity, while showing that heat, intensive use and ultra-fast charging accelerate their aging. They also note that Teslas more often exceed 400,000 km, that LFP batteries and those in the least expensive models can show good durability, and that evolving battery chemistries raise repairability questions. National angles differ: Brazil focuses on battery value after the eight-year warranty, Italy measures the residual range of a BYD Seal after 50,000 km, and China publishes 2026 test data with new rules.
